In Short – The Clubhouse is upstairs where there are minor dress restrictions. This is the "elegant" half of the operation, with a bar, several comfortable lounges, and a restaurant with individual TV monitors set into the walls of each booth. The betting windows are nearby, where you may place your $2.00 minimum bet on simulcasts of races from several area tracks. Other than the betting, this is sort of like your typical airport lounge.
Editor's Tips
- The Extras:
- Downstairs is The Grandstand ("The Pit") where the masses go to do more betting than drinking. Here the comfort of upstairs is replaced by concrete floors, chain-link fencing, and plastic cups.
